Fulton County’s Consumer Directed In-Home Services

Fulton County’s Consumer Directed In-Home Services

Through Consumer Directed Care, eligible participants can hire, train, and, if necessary, terminate their caregivers.

In this program, participants serve as the employer of record for any hired staff or services. Participants may seek support of a designated representative, if desired, to ensure care is delivered according to the client’s preferences.

This program is designed to promote autonomy, dignity, and choice—putting control back into the hands of those receiving care.
